Shrnutí:The planned massive increase of producers and consumers such as electric vehicles, heat pumps and photovoltaic systems in distribution grids will lead to new challenges in the electrical power system. These can include grid congestions at the low voltage level but also at higher voltage levels. Control strategies can enable the efficient use of flexibilities and therefore help mitigate upcoming problems. However, they need to be evaluated carefully before their application in the energy system to avoid any unwanted effects and to choose the most fitting strategy for each application. In this publication, a Python-based modular simulation tool for developing and analysing control strategies for prosumers, which uses pandapower (Thurner et al. 2018), is presented. It is intended for sequential simulations and enables detailed operational analyses, which include evaluating the influence on grid situations, the necessary behavior of energy system components, required measurements and communications. This publication also gives an overview of control strategies, existing simulation tools, how the modular simulation tool fits in and illustrates its functionalities in an application example, which further highlights its versatility and efficiency. Time series simulations with the tool allow analyses regarding the effect of control strategies on power flow results. Moreover, the simulation tool also facilitates evaluating the behavior of energy system components (e.g. distribution substations), necessary communications and measurements as well as any faults that might occur.
